ASUS Padfone to Be Launched at MWC 2012 with Tegra 3 Inside

Asus, it seems, has already fallen in love with NVIDIA’s latest chipset, the quad core Tegra 3. Already tucked into the Transformer Prime, the CPU will also be seen in the Padfone tablet + smartphone combo device that is now firmly believed to be officially launched during the Mobile World Congress 2012. The Padfone will be running another latest, Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, and Asus has just made the offering even more attractive by ensuring it has Tegra 3 inside.

Also, in case you need to be reminded, the Padfone takes tablet innovation to completely new heights by attaching a smartphone into the back of the tablet. Both the 10 inch tablet and the 4 inch smartphone can work in unison or independently of each other and will also share battery power.
